How to sanitise essential items at home, PGI doctor explains

Virus cannot survive or remain stable on newspapers, cash or books for long. one should keep them outside for 2-3 hours before using them.

During the pandemic, as people bring essentials or other items home, the fear of

contracting coronavirus from the same also looms large. PGIMER’s Department of Community Medicine and School of Public Health Professor Dr Sonu Goel explains why sanitisers are not recommended for use on fruits and vegetables and handling of cooked food can be a cause of concern. While busting myths, Professor Goel also sheds light on the protocol to be followed while bringing essentials to one’s home.

Open-Access Publishing and the Coronavirus

Some publishers are moving toward an open model, prompted by COVID-19.

 

The unrestricted sharing of scientific papers during the coronavirus pandemic may have hastened the shift toward more open-access publishing, scientists believe, as several leading journals move to make content publicly available.

Following are some Publishers:

Britain’s Biochemical Society became the latest organization to make all of its published content free to view, citing the “extraordinary times with the current Covid-19 pandemic” as its reason for lifting paywalls on its Portland Press imprint until further notice

 

Springer Nature, announced on April 8, to offer researchers a route to publishing open access in Nature and most Nature-branded journals from 2021

 

Elsevier title, Neuron,  to demand a similar switch to open access.

Trilok Sawant from Kandivali (East), Thakur Village, has prepared a portable ventilator

 Coronavirus in Mumbai: Engineering student develops portable ventilator with material available at home

          COVID-19 positive patients are rising in the state and Mumbai and ventilators will be in great need. In a bid to help the society in this crisis, an engineering student, Trilok Sawant from Kandivali (East), Thakur Village, has prepared a portable ventilator, with things available in his house. This small, palm-sized machine is automatic and patients can use it themselves at home.

After hearing about Trilok's invention of ‘Spandan’, the low cost automatic portable ventilator, North Mumbai BJP MP Gopal Shetty visited his residence yesterday morning to see the invention. “When I visited Trilok's place to see the handy ventilator, Dr Bipin Doshi and an experienced mechanical engineer were also with me to evaluate the ventilator. They also said that this ventilator would be very useful to the country in the present situation. I will help him financially and in other ways required to encourage his talent and hard work and will make him a part of the Make in India project," said Gopal Shetty.
